Sage 9 - Production - Files to upload

[joneslloyd]

Hi all, I just wanted to confirm the files & folders to upload to the server (when not using Bedrock/Trellis) in Sage 9.

I’ve previously used Sage 8, and have uploaded:

- dist (folder)
- functions.php (file)
- index.php (file)
- screenshot.png (file)
- src (folder)
- style.css (file)
- templates (folder)
- vendor (folder)

This allowed me to keep the un-optimised /assets/ directory in my local development environment, and away from the server.

In Sage 9, it appears that the files & folders to upload are:

- app (folder)
- dist (folder)
- resources (folder)
- vendor (folder)

Is this correct? I only ask because it would mean that (through the /resources/ folder) I’m forced to upload assets, unless I manually exclude them each time?

Just wanted to confirm!

Thanks,
Lloyd

Vendor can also be dropped as long as you can run composer in the theme folder on the server.

I uploaded the dirs @joneslloyd said as I’m on a shared hosting and can’t compose.

is this the correct procedure then?

Export Sage (v9+) theme as non-composer/node dependent "normal theme"

Hi there, First off, I really like what Sage brings to WordPress theme development. My only concern is that most of the sites I build are deployed on (or rather, uploaded to) shared hosting. Unfortunately, nearly all shared hosting services do not allow packages to be installed on the server via composer/npm. Is there any way of “exporting” or “packaging” a completed Sage theme into a conventional WordPress theme? If not, would something like this be possible? And also, anyone keen on explor…
